Locale-Sensitive Java Method

java.time.LocalDate

public static LocalDate parse(CharSequence text)

public static LocalDate parse(CharSequence text, DateTimeFormatter formatter)

Internationalization (I18n) Method Overview

parse obtains an instance of LocalDate from a text string using a specific formatter. If no formatter is passed in, DateTimeFormatter.ISO_LOCAL_DATE is used, which expects strings to be of the form: "2007-12-03". If the string is formatted based on locale, make sure to pass in the correct formatter for the locale.

I18n Issues

To ensure that the correct formatter is used, either pass in the locale when creating the formatter, or call withLocale on an existing formatter, passing in the locale.
